Abstract: Abstract This paper concerns a modified version of the Lindley recursion, where the recursion equation is given by $$W_{i+1} = [V_{i} W_{i} + Y_{i}]^{+}$$ W i + 1 = [ V i W i + Y i ] + , with $$\{V_i\}_{i=0}^{\infty }$$ { V i } i = 0 ∞ and $$\{Y_i\}_{i=0}^{\infty }$$ { Y i } i = 0 ∞ being two independent sequences of i.i.d. random variables. Additionally, we assume that the $$V_i$$ V i take values in $$(-\infty , 1]$$ ( - ∞ , 1 ] and the $$Y_i$$ Y i have a rational Laplace–Stieltjes transform. Under these assumptions, we investigate the transient and steady-state behaviors of the process $$\{W_i\}_{i=0}^{\infty }$$ { W i } i = 0 ∞ by deriving an expression for the generating function of the Laplace–Stieltjes transform of the $$W_i$$ W i .
